Cheryl Lessels walked away from an established teaching career to build a business and launch and original product, with no prior experience, no contacts and no plan. She just knew there was a problem she understood and she had to do something about it.
Her product is a subscription box, carefully curated with thoughtful treats and ideas to help mothers and daughters to bond. But it's much more than a product! It's a platform, too. Cheryl is committed to supporting women – she's using the box as a way to surface local female creatives and wellness entrepreneurs.
The greatest and most successful initiatives have this rare passion at their core, and I hope you enjoy hearing from this true business mind as much as I did.
